an Education." He took
for his text the passage, "Christ
grew in wisdom and strength and
in favor with God and man."

At this meeting our group singing
showed some improvement.
At a special assembly Friday

preciated talk on "Safety."
New Suits
The co-operation of the public |
in helping us to get new warmup

not only improve our appearance

a live interest in school this year.
One evidence of this is winning
the P.-T. A. banner for the first
month. We are very proud of it
and hope to be equally as fortunate
again.
We have been interested recently
in placing an aquarium in
our room. We find it fascinating!
to watch the gold fish and minnows
enjoy their fish castle surrounded
by graceful aquatic
plants. It is interesting to learn
THE STATE PORT PILO'
jfrom this study how a balance |
in nature is maintained by plants 1
supplying- oxygen to animals and f
[by the animals in turn giving off c
carbon dioxide for the plant's |
usage. a

um. One of the most interesting i
animals in our terrarium is our I
little alligator, which we call ?
Archiebald. a
We are making an extensive j
study of the South American 11
Continent. The boys are making ,0
a large spot map to show its |
chief industries and production. ;t

tiful large may showing its physical
features and climatic zones
and boundaries.
We are planning now to make
miniature reproductions showing
the developments of colonial architecture.

Lingle will select the cast at our
next club meeting. One man and
thirteen women make up the cast.
The Aviation Club is progresing

Ancient Hotel
Structure Burns
The old four story structure,
two of brick and two of wood,
started on Bald Head island many
years ago with the intention of
using it as a hotel, was destroyed
by fire Thursday morning-.
Workmen employed by Frank O,
Sherrill were engaged in tearing
away the woodwork and had
got down as far as the top of
the brick walls when the fire
started. It was very dry and it is
assumed that some of the workers
dropped a cirgarette or that
a spark fell in the rubbish. Outside
of damage to the brick the loss
is small. The original building
